Wisteria grows fast. After two or three years of planting, you can trim the shape when wisteria grows vines and climbs the flower stand. Modeling includes not only trimming, but also binding and fixing. Modeling is not only beneficial for wisteria to accumulate nutrients and grow more vigorously, but also can grow the desired shape and improve the ornamental value. When wisteria grows, the climbing speed of branches is faster, and a large number of branches will grow, so wisteria will become denser and heavier. Pruning and binding the branches of wisteria can make wisteria breathable, the density is more uniform, and the bearing capacity of the flower stand is balanced.

Pruning time of wisteria

Pruning wisteria usually takes place after defoliation in spring or winter, usually three times a year. The pruning time of wisteria bonsai is generally before germination, after flowering and when leaves fall in early spring. The corresponding seasons are spring, summer and winter.

Wisteria pruning method

1. Summer pruning: Wisteria can be lightly pruned once a year in July. Cut off residual flowers and dead branches, because it can bloom twice. Pruning residual flowers after each flowering can help plants to preserve nutrients, which is very beneficial for them to bloom again. 2. Pruning in winter: Wisteria will enter a dormant period in winter, and its growth will be slow or even stop. At this time, you can prune once, leaving only 2-3 buds on each branch and cutting off all the rest. In addition, the side branches of weak branches should also be cut off, so that nutrients can be concentrated on the remaining branches to ensure that there are enough flowers to bloom.

Matters needing attention in wisteria pruning

1. Wisteria will grow buds in summer. Be careful not to touch them when pruning at this time. They are fragile and will fall when touched, so be careful when handling them. 2. After pruning in winter, wisteria should be placed in the place where the temperature is between 5- 10, which is not resistant to low temperature. It is more conducive to its dormancy in a warm environment, which is very conducive to its growth and flowering in the coming year.
